Is the torture of a 29-year-old house help by a BJP leader and the release of Bilkis Bano’s rapists a blow to Indian PM Narendra Modi’s women empowerment narrative?

by police on Wednesday for brutally torturing her 29-year-old house help in Ranchi, the capital city of the eastern state of Jharkhand.

A week before Sunita was rescued, India celebrated its 75 years of independence, where PM Modi, speaking from New Delhi’s Red Fort, gave a speech about how would ensure the progress of India and there could not possibly be any progress in the absence of it. Bilkis Bano, a Muslim woman, was one of the victims who survived the men’s assault and fought the case in the courts for six years from 2002 until 2008, when justice was finally delivered. At the news of the release of the rapists, sheDeepal Trivedi, founder of Vibes of India— a multilingual multimedia news outlet— thinks the release of the rapists is “absolutely inhumane, gross and a big insult to the dignity of women”.

“We had not seen her picture, we did not know her real name but India rose in unison to give justice to this young woman,” says Trivedi. Film Director Deepa Mehta holds a placard during a protest against the remission of sentence by the government to convicts of a gang rape of a Muslim woman, in New Delhi, India, Saturday, August 27, 2022. in March 2020, while Bano’s rapists walked out free, begging the question: why is there not a similar country-wide reaction?

“Nirbhaya’s rapists, except a minor guy who was also jailed, were hanged until death. In this case, Bano’s rapists are moving free. They were felicitated with garlands. They are being treated as heroes. This bothers me. Why is Bano being meted out this treatment? Just because of her religion as an answer gives me shivers.”
